Why different premiums in PMFBY for rabi,kharif crops??

PMFBY -- Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana
1.5% for rabi
2% for kharif

  • I can only make an educated guess.
    In kharif crops, risk is more due to dependence on rainfall while for rabi crops, it is mostly irrigated. So less risk-> less premium.

    This is not just a guess but right answer..good! keep it up!

    Rabi crops are irrigation assured while kharif crop is natural rain dependent..so vulnerability is higher in kharif crop and Insurance is all about compensating for the sense of vulnerability .
